I also admire Cheyne for keeping his eyes shut nearly all the way down the damn rappel -- talk about working through your fear!
Saffron: I'll die. Mal: Well, as a courtesy, you might start getting busy on that, 'cause all this chatter ain't doin' me any kindness.

Because books.
Is it pronounced "Shane," though? Because every time I looked at the screen, I wanted to say "Chain."
I'm just glad Sam and Dan didn't win. Talk about whiny and irritable. The one (Dan?) was even worse than Erika.

They were bad sports, which is way worse in my book than being incompetent.

Art Crawl!!!
Yes, they were. I am very happy that they didn't win.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
They were awful. To go up to Brian and Miss America in the airport and say, "it wasn't our fault" and "you should be upset with your driver"!!! My only response would have been: PLEASE! Had I not been mad before, I am now, you're not nice people, don't act like you are.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
I agree. I actually would have been tempted to deck them. I wouldn’t have, but man I would have been tempted. I hope they see themselves on tv and realize what assholes they are.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

"The bribe money just leapt out of our wallet and into the driver's hands! And then he drove off with us and all of our stuff to the destination we asked for!"
Not your fault MY FAT ASS. Douchebags.
I sympathize with Erica (Erika?) because under similar circumstances I can see myself being exactly that kind of bitchy to my husband - it's not the world's best coping mechanism, but it is what it is.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
yeah, but there is a reason you are not on tv...
I know my limitations. I will not be on TAR.

Because I have yet to get my ass in gear and apply, as far as this show is concerned. I really could care less how I come across on TV - I just want to run the race!
